i am obsessed

since march or so, i have only really been able to listen to instrumental music.  i still can't handle words in my music.  so i've been listening to a lot of phillip glass, explosions in the sky, dustin o'halloran, para one... but mostly i've been listening to godspeed you black emperor.  their songs are so crazy and long that it's easy to go for a month with 1 fav song, and then you discover that one of their other 30 min long songs are even more awesome than the last.  my 2 favorite current songs, they aren't videos.. but at least you can listen

refinery29!

a write up on refinery29!  and it's funny cause everyone loves the mustard trench but no one ordered it...

so yeah, i cut and pasted it on here, my first full ladies line since... well, ever.  corporate jobs don't count.

Hyden Yoo Shows the Ladies Some Love With His New Femme-Focused Spring Collection

By Laura Yacoe

Usually reserved for fashionable fellas, Hyden Yoo's Spring collection now includes a women's line—and it's about damn time that we got some love, too! Set right on the shore of an industrial wasteland, his spring 2010 collection makes lounging on concrete payment in rolled-up denim shorts look absurdly cool. We're completely fixated on that worn-in, mustard trench coat paired with some slouchy pants—and the cotton jersey dress layered with strands of pearls is right on point for the holiday dress season (pair it with thick tights and a great vest and you'll knock any hint of "summery" outta the dress).

ma ke
chinese fashion designer ma ke graduated from the suzhou institute of silk textile technology in 1992.  wu yong is ma ke's third label.  for the past 10 years, ma ke, together with her husband and business partner has been a running a successful fashion house that creates and markets the labels 'mixmind' and 'exception.'  the title 'wu yong' translates to 'useless'.  ma ke is known in china for her silent, organic and reflexive clothing that is more creative and experimental in shape. confronted by the local clothing industry with its cheap, homogenising mass-production and poorly paid workers whose skill is not valued, and by a fashion scene lacking local aesthetic influence and dominated by foreign labels, she dedicated herself to developing her ‘useless’ ideas.


dude, this shit is insane!  china isn't the first place i think of for fashion like this... really amazing.  more info/images at designboom and the designers site - http://wuyonguseless.com/
